Back to Extended Stay

Sorry that I did not get to update yesterday, but we waited from 1200pm til after 500pm while the coordinator searched for a pediatric wheel-chair.  Needless to say we have not found one in Cincinnati that can be serviced in West Virginia. The Hospital loaned us one to use here until we go home and then we will have to do something different there for trips to the store or prolonged times when she will need to walk.  But we are back at the Hotel and Kendra is progressing very well.  Her trust level has increased and she will slowly walk small disstances by holding only your hands.  She is getting more comfortable and not needing as frequent pain medication, from every two hours alternating the valume and oxy. we have moved to 3 hours.  She is still quite comfortable and not sleeping as much.  We did go out and stroll around the parking lot for alittle more than an hour (she wanted to see her ducks), just for a change of scenery.  She loved it and did not want to come back in.  Hopefully the wind will die down and not get colder and we will try to go to the park later today after she has napped.  Her appeatite is increasing and has ate better today than since Tuesday, Kiristen has been a very big help and is over anxious wanting to walk with Kendra.  They are playing together and trying to get alittle rowdy at times.  Here is a couple more pics I thought you would like.  Kendra looks great and the swelling from laying on her belly during surgery and all of the IV fluids has subsided.  Will add more later.........Thanks again and huggs and kisses

This is her new Monkey....and her new brace.

Apologies for the hair, but it was the last of our worries.

This tinkerbell blanket has become a comfort thing, it is very hot but she wont let it out of her sight.  Smiling for the camera, telling me "I'm a princess, Mommys baby, and I love you...:)
